We stayed in this property in Salamanca from 14 to 20 June. The apartment was very central, very clean and comfortable and the owner very responsive to any questions. We feel, however, we need to highlight an issue for the sake of future guests.
The apartment is described as having air conditioning, but all it has is one free standing air cooler of the kind where you need to put a rubber tube through an open window. The minute the window is opened to do this, the hot air from outside comes in. The machine itself is extremely noisy and heavy.
The bedroom in the apartment is to the back and reached via 5 or 6 steps. Outside of the bedroom window on floors above and below the apartment are a number of air conditioners (proper ones) outside other people's apartments, which create a high amount of heat that permeates into the bedroom, making it the hottest room in the apartment. When we spoke with the owner about the issue he said we should move the 'air conditioner' from the living/dining room into the bedroom but we pointed out it was a) too heavy to lift (even for two of us) and b) too noisy to be able to sleep, even if we could get it into the bedroom. We asked for a desk fan, which the owner provided, but it didn't help as all it was doing was circulating hot air. We spent six very hot and sleep-deprived nights as a result.
The description of amenities for this apartment should not list 'air conditioning' as this is false. We hope you will contact the owner and ask him either to install a proper air conditioning system or describe what there actually is i.e. a portable, free standing air cooler (that is, frankly, useless)
I would have rated it 5 stars, except for this issue.

The owner arrived at the apartment a little before the agreed time (as did we). She gave us a very thorough explanation of all the apartment features, along with local maps and restaurant advice.
The apartment is located across the river from the old town area &ndash; which is visible from the roof-top terrace. The walk to town is about 5 minutes across the historic Roman bridge. Because it is not actually in the old town, access by car is much easier. There is on-street parking available, but not needed as the apartment has a large, lock-up garage on the first floor. The flight of steps up to the main level of the apartment are a bit longer than usual because of the garage height and quite narrow. There was no problem getting the bags up because they have built-in an electric lift (dumb waiter) which does all the work. There is also a chair lift on the staircase in case anyone has mobility problems.
The apartment has been recently renovated and they have done a great job of it. The living furniture is comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped (including dishwasher) and the main and en-suite bathrooms are well appointed. There is a small enclosed terrace attached to the kitchen (great for breakfast), and a large open terrace on the roof &ndash; with views across the river to the old town. The kitchen was stocked with all the usual condiments, the bathrooms provided with soap and shampoo, and there was also powder for the dishwasher and washing machine.
The TV has Spanish channels only. WiFi internet access is provided, but it is a wireless service. OK but a little slow (and very slow at busy times for the network).
The only issues we had were: (1) the lack of air-conditioning. We were there during a very hot spell of summer. Leaving the windows open at night was problematic as the road outside had light, intermittent traffic that went on well into the night. and (2) the small, firm main bed. We ended up sleeping separately in the main and second bedrooms. Neither of these issues were a major problem for us over the two days we stayed, but may grate a little more over a longer stay.
Overall, it is a good apartment and well located. It suited our purposes very well.
